The Bad Guys: The Original King of Cons(Diane Foxington x Male OC Reader)

Chapter 4: Change Of Heart & New Friends

So I've decided to refer to Ms. Tarantula by Webs when in narrative sections & when with the rest of the Bad Guys. But when she's speaking I'm "sticking" to just Ms. Tarantula for proper character name reasons as I don't want to edit already published chapters and change all her speaking lines with just a name change to her nickname as it's a pointless revision to deal with.

You were driving back to your old hideout. It was an old factory opening the old shutter, driving a bit further on the old rusty pathing and the floor gave way, becoming a lift. You sighed as smoke blew out of the car from your cigarette as you went 20 feet below the ground. The lift stopped as lights started to come on as you drove down a pristine white tunnel going through a waterfall; you drove the car up onto a ramp and left it on a pedestal.

A electronic feminine voice filled the room and you laughed in a cheerful manner while blowing a perfect smoke ring.

ALICE: Welcome Home Mr. Harris...

Sean: It's good to be home ALICE. Ha ha! I take it that you've been going through many updates these past 7 years?

ALICE: All security systems fully functional Mr. Harris. Haven't had any issues since the day you sent me that silent alert saying that you got caught. Will you be needing information for your first heist implying you are the same?

ALICE was his State of the art A.I program/system. It was originally named A.I.C.S.E which was short for Artificial Intelligence Companion Security Enforcer. However, Sean hated the abbreviation so he kept the program's original purpose, but renamed the A.I's name to ALICE.

Sean: No, I am done with that lifestyle... As a matter of fact, ALICE initiate the last resort program! Codename; Oblivion.

ALICE: Activating Oblivion...

Suddenly every weapon and gadget he personally designed each being used in crimes many times over were destroyed via flamethrower. Leaving behind only the entertainment & needed essentials.

ALICE: If you don't mind me asking, why did you suddenly have me initiate Oblivion? You just burned thousands of dollars worth of gear and weapons! Do I need to scan you for brain damage?

ALICE seemed to be quite suspicious with my actions.

Sean: I'm finished being a bad guy! It's just- It's better this way ALICE... I can't keep going around and acting like the monster I'm seen as in storybooks. I need to try harder to fix my mistakes and change the way I'm viewed! If she was able to leave this life behind & become the governor, then why can't I be able to do the same?

ALICE: I understand Mr. Harris.

After changing into more comfortable clothes, you once again looked over your place; it was big, having a green velvet couch with a 50-inch tv, an interactive touch screen computer. Next, there was a giant bed with several relaxation settings including a built in massager & an internal heater/cooler. Second, to last was a kitchen with a big fridge/freezer.

Sean: Ironic isn't it? The only valuable item I purchased with real money is this Emerald ring. Haha! It's funny looking back now... I actually feel better getting rid of that stuff... (You walked to your computer.)

You activated your computer and entered your code and it opened up.

Sean: Ha! Still works even after 7 years of being shutoff... Damn, it's good to be home again! (You smirked as you cracked your knuckles.)

Sean: Okay, what have I missed over the last seven years then?

As you looked, something caught your eye; it was a photo of you and Diane smiling together. You pick it up and hold back tears as your hand trembled a little.
